- Hey guys, Cam from Aussies Beaut here! Been a while since I have uploaded. I'm hoping to change that. Got a new laptop, and editing software. Plus more incentive to go out and film what I love doing! Decided to do a belt swap on my Troopy, so I thought i'd show you guys how to do one on a 1HZ. Seeing as there aren't a massive variety around, going into mass detail. Looking forward to uploading more to do with outdoors. Plus hopefully going to catch up with a few other good TH-camrs/Aussie lads and make some top notch content! Stay tuned, and send us your pics on Instagram! @aussiesbeaut

Thanks mate. As a German driving a Troopy in Germany on the Autobahn, when one of the belt ripped it was quite spectacular when I changed it on the side of the road after watching your video. Fortunately I do carry spare belts. Haven‘t used any in 18 years, but when I had to, you were a huge help.
Thanks again buddy, the next shout is on me, when I come Down Under again.😎
Yeah, I had a belt go on my old 75 Troopy 1HZ. It tangled with another and another. That left me with 3 broke belts in the middle of the night on a remote Queensland backroad. Hats off to the RACQ service guy I got out of bed. Had to go back to his shop for belts and it still took two of us and both of our toolkits to complete the job. Wench was so happy to be mobile! 🙂
Lesson learnt. Never left the spare belts at home again!
Removing the four mounting bolts on the A/C compressor allows you to move it enough to gain much better access to the top of your alternator. Thanks for the video! My alternator adjustment bracket broke and I lost the adjustment bolt. Your video is the first time I've actually seen what that bolt looks like and how it works. Even my shop manual doesn't show it.
Thanks mate, great vid. Helped me change the belts on my 01 105 series. Would have been good to also show how you install the new belts as well, as that's where I had the most trouble. But, then again, I learned a lot by having to problem-solve myself.
My alternator was pretty stuck and I spent ages trying to push it back into position. Ended up wedging a pry bar from underneath. Also, you need to tighten the adjustment bolt for the two smaller lower belts right up to get the right tension. The bolt doesn't start tightening the belts until it starts to push up against the end of the adjustment guide.
Thanks mate start with out any researched, stopped what i was doing and came in the house searched youtube and there your video was, thanks got belts off...life saver
Just did the exact same thing
Thanks mate another guy you helped here, I knew where the nuts/bolts were for the air con belts but never exactly knew which 2 to loosen/tighten. Your precise guide showed me which 2 to undo/tighten and job was done in 5 minutes. Once again great
video and thanks. 😉
Thanks heaps bro ! Lifesaver ! Easy explanation and you took the time to show clearly what needs to be done. Good stuff
Great video, appreciate the detail you went into as have 1kz in a Prado and this is best video so far of explaining how to do it with similar set up
Never done more than topped up oil or added diesel before. First time I felt like I did something on my truck today, thanks to this video
Thank you mate! Struggled a bit at the end to get the second alternator bolt at the bottom back on but managed it in the end. Nice one
Hey mate. Swapped mine over on my 00 HZJ78R on the weekend. Your video was perfect. Legend!
Bought the Haynes manual, ended up using this tutorial haha, cheers mate.
Big help mate, thanks! Just changed mine over in my 1hdt 80 series under your instruction
Great vid bro, and you explained each step so even a novice can understand. Most others don’t do that so cheers for that. Keep up the good work I really appreciate it 👍
No problem at all mate! Just wanted to help out others :)
Hey, great vid. Changed my belts on my HDJ81 yesterday after watching your vid. Thanks for the help!
Dick_Biggens no problem at all man, glad I could lend assistance! I’m the hardest part is putting them on 😑
awesome vid. have also got a squeak coming from one of the belts. will be changing mine tomorrow
Great video guy, appreciate it, impressive that you did it while filming as well
Cheers Cobb!!
Thanks mate. Great vid
Great vid, American with kzj78 Prado. This was very helpful.
Great job very helpful.👍
Ausome video mate helped me heaps cheers
Good video. Thanks
Excellent thanks for sharing
Well explained 👍
yeah awesome bro for a young fella
Nice
Thanks mate
How do you know when your belts have enough tension?
What is the procedure for getting the alternator belt tight
Thanks i will be changing it tomorrow
Hi mate is tightening the serpentine the same as change, just tilt alternator out to give belt more pressure?
Thanks buddy
Does the alternator tension bolt have to be screwed all the way in. That is do I lever the alternator as much as I can then do up the right bolt then adjust with left hand tension bolt
I have 1pz wich should be the same procedure. If you are not going to use the old belts as back up belts in case your new belts snap you can save some time and cut them :)
Great video mate, quick question. Does it matter the brand of belts? or would you just recommend the calibre ones you're using?
Harry Mavin Calibre are a Supercheap auto brand. I worked there at the time, so I chose to get them as staff discount was too good to turn down! But the Gates is a brand that many will recommend. Either that or Genuine ones. I’ve never found an issue with the Calibre ones. Still running them till this day.
ooh mate... this is a Fab! Video and i can now attempt changing my 3 belts. I could not help notice your XTM driving lights. How do you find them any good?
Siva Poobalasingam why thank you!
Plus yes. I am finding them brilliant! The output on them is quiet high, and plus the spread on them is brilliant. I used to run a light bar and spotties. But took the bar off as spotties is all I need for now. They are excellent quality.
Comparing them to Adventure kings 9”. I personally find that they are abit better. Mainly cause of looks, and plus you don’t see the XTM lights on every car like you do the kings XD. They are brilliant. Highly can stand by them, and they are RUGGED as all hell. If you need a hand wiring them, lemme know. Might make a video on that too 😋
@@aussiesbeaut9730 BCF have them on special at the moment. If you can do a video on installation that would be great. I've got my existing halogen IFP's and i reckon that just swapping the lights and connecting it to the existing wiring should work... one hopes...lol...
Hey Legend, cheers for the awesome video! Ill be heading to Supercheap tomorrow to buy the three belts. I have a 2001 HZJ78R . Do you know the exact belts (part number if possible?) I would need to get?
Nick Although I do not know the exact belt numbers. If you have a 1HZ motor. They’ll be the same as these ones here that I’m using.
My best recommendation for you to do.
Is to pop the hood, and just above the on the fire wall on your vehicle. There will be a metal plate, that will read out the VIN number of your vehicle.
Supercheap’s part system that they use (OSCAR is the system they use). They will be able to type in the VIN number into their search. & pull up your exact vehicle. Giving you the EXACT parts you’ll need.
Instead of them trying to find your vehicle & making a mistake.
The belts. Both smaller belts come in a 2pk together. But the large serp belt comes in a singular pack. Should be around $30 all up.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
They now make the aircon belt 1300mm long instead of 1270mm, that should be easier to replace. 13A1300 .
Hey mate what was that single belt for as I don't have it on my 1kz and I'm wondering why it's not on thanks mate
The single and longer one is for the AC compressor.
What knowledge do you have about why a 1994 Landcruiser' dual top belts willn't move but the engine does turnover making the belts squeal. Is it the air compressor ?
Your compressor has shit itself
How did u tension the alternator belt
At about 4:34 into the video. I show 2 different bolts. The one that’s on the left side (not the one that fell out later in the video). The one on the left is the tensioner. The one that’s on the right goes into the alternator. With the one on the right done up (the one that I dropped). Go and tighten the one on the left until the Belts are snug, and don’t have much slack in them. DO NOT over tighten. As this will lead to damage to the alternator pulley or belt which can get expensive. Once you’ve done that. You can tighten the bottom bolt (the one I used the Breaker bar on). This will properly hold the alternator in place (please refer to Haynes Manual for Torque specs, as it’s been a while since I made the video and don’t quiet remember off the top of my head 😂😂).
@@aussiesbeaut9730 cheers mate I done em yesterday but it's sqeaking abit just need to tension her up abit more. I think what I did wrong was tighten both the bottom and top bolts then tried to tension it
Today would have gone so much easier if I had watched this one first, parts store gave us the wrong belts 980 instead of 1005
you must have turbo on your other working hand lol...
does this have boost, love boost ay
Please help but new belts on all good but every 2 weeks it’s start making the fucking noise again and it’s loose so tighten it then gets loose again please help why is it happening
The Og fox there are multiple reasons as to why they might be squeaking. If it’s only started happening recently. It may be to do with the cold weather that’s now hit, due to the belt contractions with the multiple temp changes. Try tightening the belts and see how you go. If this doesn’t work. Try determine which belt is squeaking. If you can find the belt, and the pulley that it/they’re on (the bottom pulley holds 2 belts). You may need to check the pulley and see if it’s loose or not. If it is, try tightening it. If worst comes to worst. You may be up for a new Pulley. Hope this helps
The alternator adjuster bolt is on TOP of the alternator so there is NO need to take the whole bottom bolt out, you just need to loosen it slightly and also NO need to undo the bolts totally as you have shown they fall out.. so if they are just loosened they DO NOT fall out.
Yes. I just loosened it abit more to give a little more wiggle room. A little too much, that it fell out. But no biggie. 2 second fix
Chill out bro
